What to do if my Pulsar Measuring Instruments instrument does not switch on?
- T
  Tyler MurrayJul 27, 2025
  If your Pulsar Measuring Instruments instrument doesn't switch on, there are several possible causes. First, ensure that batteries are fitted. If they are, they might be flat or low, so try fitting new batteries. Also, check the polarity to make sure the batteries are correctly fitted. If the issue persists, the instrument may be corrupted, in that case you should contact your local distributor or Pulsar Instruments Plc.
